Please use this website to follow along with me. If you are interested, I can share a private link to Voxopop in which you can connect with other teachers in Methacton School District. I have set up a talk group in Voxopop. Here is a link to instructions on how to use it. I recommend creating your own account, and then selecting students to participate in the discussions. If enough classrooms sign up, it should make for some very interesting discussions!
Another opportunity to network with your colleagues is through a website called Edmodo. I have created a space within Edmodo where all teachers interested participating may join. Here's a link to a great tutorial on how to set up your account.
Lastly, by being a member of this wiki, you will be able to post comments at the end of each of the web pages.
Confused about how to use these applications? I will be happy to work with you either in person or online via Google Hangout to walk you through the steps!
